Donald Trump announced plans to hold a press conference next week to present a “conclusive report” proving that the 2020 election in Georgia was rigged. This comes after Trump was recently indicted by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis for attempting to overturn the election results in Georgia. Trump claims the report will show election fraud and lead to “a complete exoneration” of all charges against him. However, critics argue it has been over two years since the election and Trump has not previously provided evidence of widespread fraud. The announcement also comes just hours after Trump lashed out at Willis for indicting him now rather than earlier. It remains to be seen whether Trump’s promised report will actually contain new evidence that could substantively challenge the prior investigations.

I guess what I’ll say is, that’s a valid concern, but they’ve been working on it. Keep in mind, there may have been a lot of folks compelled to go, but there were a lot more that had absolutely nothing to do with it.
Kind of related, there may have been police there, but police officers as a whole have gotten the job done investigating and processing Trump.
Based on my experience with the navy, it seemed like all the lowest rungs of the ladder are 18 year olds who barely care about their own jobs, let alone politics. You’d see fox news in the chiefs mess but surprisingly little demagoguery below e-3.
